Submillimeter Wave Production by Upshifted Reflection from a Moving Ionization Front.

Abstract

The Doppler shift and reflection coefficients are calculated for reflection of an EM wave from a moving ionization front in a stationary gas. It is suggested that this process can be used to upshift microwaves to submillimeter waves. (Author)
